Hot and Muggy

Heading out the door at 5am I was surprised at how warm it already was. Even though I was only running 4 miles, I brought my water with me and was very glad I did. Every last drop of the water was gone by the time I got back home. The temperature when I got home was 88 degrees at 5:40am and the high for today is supposed to be 116 degrees. Its a good thing I like to stay inside in the air conditioned house.

I bought new shoes the other day and already got a blister. Blisters aren't something that I usually have problems with so I was surprised. I don't think the new shoes have helped ( they also haven't hurt ) my hip discomfort. I'm very, very frustrated with the hip and can't help but wonder if maybe a marathon this year isn't in the cards. I really want to run though and will keep working towards running more.

Great question because I'm surprised at the answer myself. I usually wear half a size higher and when I looked at the shoes they are the same size as I wear in everyday shoes. I've worn Brooks and I bought Asics.

Christina, I think size it's the main reason of the blister. The "trouble" with Asics is that they're very comfortable even at your everyday shoes size. I encountered the same problem in the past also with a pair of Asics. I took the "badé size because I was feeling great when I tried them in the shop.
